Yeah, it is quiet a long read. Can b boring, if one has heard all this b4. Maybe I should summarise the long article in key points.
The article alleges the following.
1.Ministers, beaurocrats worried and expressing the need for foreign pilots.
2.Air India recruitment process not transparent
3.Using legal loopholes and setting up recruitment agencies(Parc,Rishworth), ministers and bureaucrats made money out of it. These companies were based in tax-free countries such as Dubai.
4.Earning of foreign pilots doesn't contribute to Indian taxes.
5.Experience of foreign pilots is not verified by DGCA.
